3D Printed Eye-Gaze mount for GoPro Suction Cup Base

prusaprinters

This is a mount for an eye-gaze system using a piece of plexiglass and a suction cup mount for a GoPro.  I designed this for a person with disabilities who likes to bounce in his wheelchair. Since he likes to bounce, a normal eye-gaze system is unable to be placed on his tray. For those who don't know what eye-gaze is. It is designed for a caregiver/teacher/parent to sit behind the plexiglass to watch the person with disabilities' eyes when they are making a choice, comment, or ask a question.  This can accommodate a choice of 3 depending on the motor movement of the person's eyes.Pros:Light weightCan be mounted to a flat smooth surface.Allows for some movement of the surfacePictures are easily mounted and changed without the use of costly VelcroCheaper than many other eye-gaze solutions.Cons:This design is that the suction cup base requires a perfectly smooth surface to mount to.Due to the design of the GoPro interface, it is balanced on a relatively small amount of plastic.Bolts are unsightly.
